Lømø Løcø!
I'm being lazy and reblogging myself from DND. Hope you don't mind?
Kthxbai!
I completed this roll of film a few weeks ago, but hadn't gotten around to taking it in for developing until today. And.. not too bad! Horrendously out of focus, but I do like the dreamy air it lends the shots, and the colours were more vivid than I expected.
The film was 400 with most shots taken on the 200, rather than 400, setting, after getting the previous roll back to find most shots looking as though I'd gone snap-happy in a coal cellar. I bought a roll of 100 today that I'll whack in there tomorrow and go crazy with.. I'm determined to finally get some great cemetary shots after wasting two or three rolls there so far with only gloomy results, but again those were with 200 and 400 film taken on their respective settings.
The cemetary here is desert style, soft dunes of sand and old weathered crosses, headstones with the writing long since lost into the wind-borne sand that have scoured them for decades. There's one stone with an inscription declaring it's owner the "first white woman in Charleville"; a tiny infant's grave with corroded metal fencing, the child's teddy bear still sitting upon it forgotten and lonely; and plenty of the most amazing angel headstones in all kinds of conditions.
Long shadows would be the best time to take the shots, but I'm not sure whether early or late light would be best. The paler early light might suit the situation best I guess, being cleaner and whiter than the evening orange it could suit backlit shots of those angels beautifully. Wish me luck!
